"Somewhere, everytime of the day, there will be someone doing a random act of kindness. The Dhali Lhama said, "My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness." I try to be as kind as I can. Everyday, it doesn't matter who it is or who they are, they are worth it. I live by that."

"The majority of us lead quiet, unheralded lives as we pass through this world. There will most likely be no ticker-tape parades for us, no monuments created in our honor.

    But that does not lessen our possible impact, for there are scores of people waiting for someone just like us to come along; people who will appreciate our compassion, our unique talents. Someone who will live a happier life merely because we took the time to share what we had to give.

    Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have a potential to turn a life around. It's overwhelming to consider the continuous opportunities there are to make our love felt."

...Leo Buscaglia

"You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late."

"Giving connects two people, the giver and the receiver, and this connection gives birth to a new sense of belonging."

"Only a life lived for others is worth living."

all situations -- not just

when it suits you."
